President Lula Says It Makes No Sense To Import Fuels And Oil Platforms In His Speech

In the National Congress, newly elected President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva read his entire speech, in which he states that Brazil is a very large country to continue importing fuels, fertilizers, oil platforms, microprocessors, aircraft, and satellites. According to him, the nation has sufficient technical capacity, capital, and market to restore the growth of industrialization and services at a competitive level.

What Consequences To Expect For The Oil And Gas Sector After President Lula’s Speech?

President Lula’s speech may represent a shift in Petrobras’ policy for hiring platforms for the production of oil and natural gas. In previous PT governments, this production required local content indexes and the construction and occupation of national shipyards for their orders.

With 7.4 trillion tons of artificial snow pumped in 10 years, an extreme operation could stabilize the West Antarctic ice sheet and prevent a sea level rise of more than 3 meters, but it would require snow cannons, ocean water, and energy on an almost industrial scale at the end of the world.

The Blood Falls of Antarctica hide a living ecosystem trapped under the ice for over 2 million years, where microbes survive without light, without oxygen, and without ever having seen the Sun.

In the Saudi Arabian desert, the world’s largest green hydrogen plant is 80% complete and will use 4 gigawatts of solar and wind energy to produce 600 tons of clean fuel per day when it opens in 2027.

The CEO of Honor in Spain says that smartphones will change with AI, foldables, and even robot phones; the component crisis is making cheap models more expensive in 2026 and shifting the focus to premium.

Iran declared that the security of the Persian Gulf will be for everyone or for no one — and threatened to attack ports of neighboring countries after the U.S. blockade in the Strait of Hormuz.

Chinese automaker patents a toilet hidden inside the car seat that can be activated by voice command and promises to meet the needs of those stuck in traffic for hours or traveling long distances.

The BRICS Bank releases an additional 2.5 billion reais for Brazil, raising the total invested in the country to 7 billion dollars since 2015 in railways, renewable energy, sanitation, and urban mobility.

At 625 meters above the ground and with a span of 1,420 meters between mountains, China inaugurated the highest bridge in the world — and the 2-hour journey now takes 2 minutes.

A neighboring country of Brazil starts to profit billions from oil after the war in Iran, sees its economy grow at an unusual pace, and enters a silent dilemma that few countries can resolve without a crisis.
